MI. McNcll is an official in the Knights Of
Labor organization and is besides connected
with the statistical department of the Massa-
chusetts )a'n bureau. 1t is odd how per-
sistently that word "labor" keeps popping up,
SO that there is no avoiding it. The word
neceSsitates repetition in writing that
would not h" tolerated u moment in elegant
composition. just so, before tho subject is
done with, Mo cause it represents will force
itself upon the notice of circles that have
deemed themselves quite too elegant to listen
to it.
George L. McScll is we'll qualified to write

born i'll Antover. Mass. His father was the
neighbor OF and coworker for freedom to tho
slave with john G. Whittier in the old DAYS

AS Il hoy George McNeill worked in tho

learned the sccsnaker's trade. Cues, ions of
workingmcn's rights and duties were familiar
to him from an early age. The great factory
strike OF 1851 took place. while he worked in
the WOODEN mill. He afterwarl became a
high officer in the Sons OF Temperance, and
a member Ut the Eight Hour league. Ito
was president Of the Eight Hour league for

and iron strength, both of which have been

brccch cloth and lc""iNgs; none of them
wore hc"d gear. Their luAuriant growth
OF inky black h:lr seems quite sufficient
to protect them from i'll effects Of sun
shine or storm. Since their arrival they
have been logged out in most gorgeous
style.

was covered with q calico shirt. lie and
his followers always wear their skirts
Chinese fashion, and no matter what else
they may wear, they never fail to don

that it will show beneath tho shirt.
Around his neck was Il lurschair chain,

BUILDING THE ANDES RAILROAD.
Quarter of u Billion Expended and
Nearly 5000 Lives Sacrificed.

A Quarter of y Billion Expended and
Nearly 5000 Lives Sacrificed.
The railroad was begun by Mr. Mcigs
III 1870. Starting from the sea, it nsccnds
the narrow valley Of the once sacred
Rinlac, rising 5000 feet in the first 46
miles to u beautiful valley, where the
people of Lima have found IN attractive
summer resort; then it follows u wind
ing, gitldy pathway along the edge of
precipces and over bridges that seem
| suspended in the mir, tunnels the Andes ut
al altitude Ii, Gas fcet-thc most elevated
spot in the would where q piston rod is
moved by stcaT-and ends ut Orova
l",l1S feet above tho sea. Between
the coast and the summit there is not IN
inch Of down grade, and tho track has
been forced through tho mountains by
series OF G3 tunnels, whose aggregate
length is $1,000 feet. The great tunnel
OF Gnlcria, by which the pinnacle Of the
Andes is pierced, will be, when COM
pleteh, $500 feet long, and will be the
highest elevation OF tho cnrth'; surface
where amy such work has been under
taken. Besides boring the mountains Of
granite and blastin. tho clcfts along the
sides to rest the track upon. steep cut
tinG and superb bridges, the system of
reverse tanEcnts had to DC adopted in
canyons that were too narrow for Il curve.
SO tho track @iGzaGs up the mountain
side, on the switch and back.np principle,
the trains taliing one leap forward. end
after being switched on to another track
another leap backward, until the summit
Is won: SO that often there arc four and
five lines Of track parallel to each other,
one above another. on the mountain side.
1t is estimated that the construction Of
the road cost Peru 1,CcO lives from Pcs
thence and accident. La,lu slides, falling
powders, premature explosions, sorra
che-:. disease which attacks those who
are not accustomed to the raw air OF the
high administrators caused by deposits
OF rotten granite, and other causes, re-
suited in - frigl,tful mortality during the
seven years tho road was under col,struc-
ton, but tho project was pushed on until
the funds gave out. The cost II human
life was no obstacle.
1t takes apower OF steam to ascend this
road with its average grade Of rcr cent,
but in coming down the boilers arc al
lowed to cool, and only steam enough is
kept to hold the brakes and blow the
whistle. We came down part way in q
hand car u. the rate Of mile in two
! minutes, and it was rs exciting Il ride as
one can imagine.
The completion OF the line to the min
ing regions will cost $1o,OCO,0Oo, but the
